Analysis Of Camiguin
There are numerous reviews of tourist that had the chance to visit Camiguin including the Sunken Cemetery, and enjoyed it. For Camiguin is a destination unlike any other local tourist destinations for it offers them a complete natural environment and high diversity of ecosystem.
As we can remember, we started from an island that has nothing but inhabitants, then the time came when it was colonized by Spaniards, grew and progressed, had its own buildings, infrastructures, and trading yet even that was taken again away from the people, their possessions destroyed and their loved ones lost because of the massive eruption that occurred. But now, it progressed and developed again into a more beautiful place for living, away from the great pollution

For because of it, our once selfish and prideful attitudes were changed and we started to know and practice unity and camaraderie with each other. We learned that there can be no way to let this community stand again without the help of one another and we should know that being a close-minded person cannot get us anywhere. That only if we work hand in hand as one society, we can achieve our goal of improving. Come to think of it, if after that incident that destructed parts of the island, people just helped themselves and not thinking of aiding other people in need, we think our community can stand again? No. This lesson is not only for the Camiguin Island nor is it only for the Filipinos but this lesson of unity and cooperation is for all the people who will be reached by this tale and will be able to know the historical Sunken Cemetery either through this narrative or through the word of mouth.
It is so pleasing to know that Camiguin was able to find its place again, had the capability to be resilient and was strong to find its way back to the top. Today, Catarman, Camiguin stands to be one of the most progressive municipalities in the province with its present mayor, Hon. Nestor Jacot with his Vice Mayor Zosimo Borres and their councillors Banaag, Amao, Dinorog, Buhisan, Torro, Babael, Lopez and

    When we first arrived our primary goal was to build houses and fences. We did hasty work on the houses, which proved to be a downfall when winter came. We used the fences to keep out possible intruders or animals. Unfortunately due to our carelessness, the village was burnt down accidentally. When Spring came, we were greeted with 50 new settlers who were immediately put to work building warm stable houses and starting farms. Now we have great homes for ourselves and others, making this a great place to live.…

La Cabana is an 18th century colossus built between 1763 and 1774 on the east side of Havana harbor. La Cabana was used as a military prison.

According to The Baltimore Sun “ Her Husband, Eduardo Adot, was so grief-stricken that he would visit the grave as many as three times a day. He would leave flowers and knock against the cement burial vault with one of the four brass rings attached to the lid, as if to let her know he was there. As he left, he would always back away from her grave, so as to gaze on it as long as possible.” Custom and tradition says that one is to -knock on the grave -say your name and your wish - Lay down the flowers or a gift - walk away backwards away…

    Then the city was a small town with very little infrastructure and little employment opportunities. There were no resorts, spas, or beach activities. Yet as I grew up so did the city, I got to witness a town become a city, and it watched me transition from a kid to a young adult. Through this unique relationship I became more optimistic about the future. Like a plant that needs nourishment to grow a town needs money. I saw a town go from a little population to a big one, saw dirt roads become asphalt highways, saw turmoil and destruction become success. All through the power of tourism. As the city grew to new success I followed suite. I set about to understand and comprehend the world we live in. As I matured and grew much like Puerto Penasco my worldly perspective changed from a naïve child to and optimistic…

    Volcanoes

    About 240 millions years ago, all the land on the earth’s surface was joined together in one vast supercontinent that extended from pole to pole. But by 18,000 years ago, the earth had been transformed; the continents as we know them today had been created and had moved into their present positions. But the Erath’s surface has not stopped moving and the process continues today. Why does this movement occur? Deep within the earth, pressure and heat cause rocks of the mantle to become partly molten, but near the surface a thin layer of solid rock forms the crust. As currents of heat rise and fall within the mantle, the crust breaks up into large pieces, called plates, which move about very slowly on earth’s surface. The movement of the plates creates powerful forces that continually create and destroy land features and reshape the earth’s surface. Most of the action takes place at the plate edges, or boundaries, where plates move against or over each other, or dive back below the surface. As the plates move, mountains are uplifted, the sea floor cracks and spreads, volcanoes erupt, and new land is formed. I think that volcanoes present the greatest challenges to human. And I will try to explain my point of view. As I have already mentioned volcanoes can form a new lands, without them we would not have Hawaii Iceland and many other most magnificent places in the world. On the other hand, volcanic eruptions are one of the most destructive natural disasters, which endanger human life and cause significant changes in the atmosphere. A large eruption can be extremely dangerous for people living near a volcano. Flows of searing lava, which can reach 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit (1,250 degrees Celsius) or more, can be released, burning everything in its path, including whole towns. Boulders of hardening lava can rain down on villages. Mud flows from rapidly melting snow can strip mountains and…

    ANSWER: Basically, the book changed my impression of who really our ancestors are before the coming of the Spaniards in the Philippines. We only taught in elementary and high school that there are different ethnic groups in the Philippines. We were never taught about the practices or rites of every region. Like in the Visayas, architecture, burial, tattooing, myths, deities, etc. It really changed my mind about the prehistory of the Philippines because there are many practices have been preserved until like the weaving, building houses, farming,…
